Why does my SMP (Scalp Pigmentation) ink keep fading away?

DennisN13
I have SMP (Scalp Pigmentation) done at the area where I have my hair transplanted. But it fading rapidly, in 3 months almost all gone. I have read it’s because my immune system that pushed the ink out. My question is how can I stop this from happening? Is it wise to keep getting a touch up every 4-5 months if my body just won’t take the ink pernamently?
